I am getting the ASRock x58 Extreme. Do I need a wireless internet card?

What do you think? Have you tried checking the motherboard specs to see if WLAN is built into the motherboard?

Well, do you plan on connecting to a wireless LAN?

Most desktop systems come with a standard LAN RJ-45 port. Few come with wireless as laptops do.

Here's the spec page for your computer:

I'm sure it will be fine. I usually get D-Link or Linksys, but Rosewill seems to be popular.
